Alpha's Crew was what the gang associated with the famous gladiator Alpha called themselves. They all appear to share some common background, though they are as diverse as can be. For some reason they returned from a long journey, scarred and worse for wear, and now insist on the name of "Valkyria Corporation's Lost Ones", or, "Val-CLOnes" for short.


History

Once, the world was nice. It isn't, these days. Out of hardships, bonds are forged, and the more recent years have seen this gang through several. Whoever named them all didn't have a lot of time, imagination, or suggestions... they probably used an Old World list or two. Bravo, Gamma and Zero scouted out the town around the sinter plant in [irl year 2014], and it was considered a nice and safe place to hide from certain factions, to whom the 'crew had a bit of a debt.

Well, there was that nice idea of a travelling casino, which worked real well for quite some time, and then it didn't, and suddenly you're up to your knees in debt.

But you can't outrun some people, and the gang outran into a couple of them instead. Since [irl year 2015] they've been hanging out, on and off, in the shanty town, doing every job they can, cheering for Alpha in the gladiatorial fights and rubbing elbows with their neighbours.

Today

Val-CLOnes are an odd bunch. They make do, but they're no winners - except Alpha, of course, always Alpha, queen under Qhuinn, reigning over the fight pit. They're hoping to settle their debts one time or the other, but that's going to take a lot of kapps...


Members

Alpha (female pronouns) is the star of the outfit. She happily steps into the fighting pit in the sinter plant. Has a bit of an anger management issue. Don't ever ask her for "a date", it's a close call as to who will cause you unconsciousness first between her or any of the others. Sister to Echo.

Bravo (male pronouns) totes around an EMP and makes a mean (mutant-proof, so they all claim) chai. Often seems to be called "fuckup" by the others, and still there's something they envy him. There's a story to that. Brother to Sierra.

Charlie (neutral pronouns) seems to consider the 'crew "theirs". They back this up with an unpleasant amount of knives and an uncomfortably high fluency in using them. Often acted as spotter to Echo the sniper. Now carries Echo's rifle, Sigge.

Dash (male pronouns) has the looks and knows it. He's nimble-fingered and a deft hand at writing things down. The stories he retell or new-tell are always worth a listen. A charmer, but maybe a bit vain? Brother to Zero.

Echo (male pronouns) used to do the sniping for the 'crew. Had an unpredictable-as-hell temper, except when behind the butt of Sigge, his rifle - which he never let anyone save Charlie touch. Proud brother to Alpha - but sometime during the winter-before-last he walked off, and though rumours enough say he live, where he is is anyone's guess.

Gamma (male pronouns) is the techie. He's also often a bit better dressed than the others. He's got the smarts and knows how to hack, and he owns a pretty rad motorcycle. More than once he's worked with Echo for a drive-by sniping.

Juliett (male pronouns) is dead. He was the blue-moustachioed hippie of the group, the therapist, the one to keep them sane-r. He wielded a big damn gun and good advice with equal aplomb, but was shot through the head by a Chaosist during a supposed business transaction. Oldest brother to Kilo and Tango.

Kilo (female pronouns) comes across as somewhat dim-witted. Make no mistake though, she is a mean medic. She'll defend the 'crew with a trigger-happy finger or sew them up with the very same. And they will defend her fiercely in return. Youngest sister to Juliett and Tango.

November (female pronouns) has got herself a bit of medical training too. Her hearing is damaged and so she can operate her patients without worrying about any screaming. Likes pink and horses. Returned to the 'crew about a year ago after hearing about Juliett. Is an item with Tango since forever.

Sierra (male pronouns) brings dark humour to any party. And booze, in general. He's fairly sharp, and often acts big-brotherly to Bravo. Ran in a different direction when the casino deal went rotten. Came back at the end of the winter-before-last, since hearing of Juliett's death. Brother to Bravo.

Tango (female pronouns) is a whiz at mechanics and heavy weapons. It's unclear whether they like her more, or she them. She's been an item with November forever. Returned to the 'crew fairly soon after hearing about Juliett. Sister to Juliett and Kilo.

Zero (neutral pronouns) has a loner streak a mile wide. Despite this, they always return to the 'crew. They know their way around any deadlands, any outback, any wasteland and often takes jobs as a guide. Got their left arm ripped off and replaced by cybernetics. This means that their firepower is backed up by razor-sharp claws. Sibling to Dash.

""Acire"" (male pronouns) is one of Bravo's and Sierra's adoptive dads. Loves his sons but suffers serious PTSD after his time in the hands of the Chaosist. Quite clever with computers.



Friends and enemies

They consider few people their friends, but a couple might be allies. The don't seem to averse to the Water Federation.

Few who hang out with any member of the 'crew could miss that they all hate the Chaosists with a vengeance. They appear to have a good reason for it, too, but you'll have to ask them personally for it. Their foremost easygoing thorn-in-our-side was Nova, but they mainly seemed to dislike them and do a lot of jobs for them.

The CLOnes couldn't hide their distrust for AI:s if they tried, but there's one they hate in particular, the one that once was the lynchpin of the Valkyria Corporation ("Bioengineering the future!").
